Coimbra, a city cradled by the River Mondego, is a living tapestry of history. Its winding streets lead to the ancient university, one of Europe’s oldest, with the Joanina Library standing as a beacon of knowledge. Beneath it all, traces of Roman roots remain—arches, the forum, a whisper of an empire long faded. In the Santa Cruz Monastery, Portugal's first king, Afonso Henriques, rests in solemn peace. Yet, Coimbra is also home to the tragic love story of Pedro and Inês, whose passion was torn apart by fate. Their tale, woven into the city’s soul, lingers in the mournful melodies of fado—songs of longing and loss. As the sun sets, bathing the city in gold, Coimbra becomes a quiet symphony, where past and present meet, and love’s whispered secrets endure.
- The day will start at the front door of your accommodation in Lisbon; - We'll then drive to Coimbra, and park the car in Alta, the University area; - After, we'll visit the University, its chappel, and the amazing Joanina Library; - We'll then have a walk in the historical center, visiting the Romanesque 12th century Cathedral; - We'll stop for lunch, and after lunch we'll visit the tomb of the first king of Portugal. - We'll get back to the car, have a drive through the aqueduct, close to the Botanical Garden, and stop for a beverage in Quinta das Lágrimas, before we drive back to Lisbon. - At the end of the day we'll go back to the same place where we started the tour. * * If you want to use this tour also as a transfer, I can drop you off at your accommodation in Coimbra.
